- The name of this category corresponds with the English word "browse" (as used for a project page in the English Wikipedia then in the corresponding Wikia category). Here is the Ngata dictionary entry that inspired it:
- browse: I browsed through the book. whakaraparapa(tia): I whakaraparapa ahau i te pukapuka.
Ki tōku nei whakaaro, kāhore a 'Whakaraparapa' i te ingoa pai mō te wāhanga nei. Take: ko 'whakaraparapa' he kupu roa, he kupu e mōhiotia rawatia ana e te ruarua noa iho. Nā Ngata anake te whakapākehātanga 'browse'. Nā Williams kē 'glance from side to side'. Ko 'Katoa' pea tētahi ingoa pai. Ka taea e te katoa te whai i te tikanga o Katoa. He kupu poto hoki. Heoi anō, ko 'Tirotiro' (look about, investigate) hoki he ingoa pai ake i a 'Whakaraparapa', i a 'Katoa' hoi pea; he kupu mōhiotia nuitia hoki. Kahuroa 21:55, 22 Hōngongoi 2006 (UTC)
